Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are supposed to write an inequality to determine the number of hot dogs per minute Joey must eat for the last 9 minutes to break his record.
Let d represent the number of hot dogs Joey eats per minute for the next 9 minutes.
We have been given that after 1 minute, Joey has eaten 
hot dogs.
Hot dogs eaten in next 9 minutes would be 9 times d that is 
.
Total hot dogs eaten by Joey would be hot dogs eaten in 1 minute plus next 9 minutes: 
.
Since to break the record Joey needs to eat more than 72 hot dogs. We can represent this information in an inequality as:
Therefore, our required inequality would be .
Answer:
|-15| > |-5|
-15 < -5
Step-by-step explanation:
|-15| ○ |-5|
Absolute value means take the positive value
15 ○ 5
15 is greater than 5
15 > 5
-15 ○ -5
negative 15 is less than -5
-15 < -5

6
Step-by-step explanation:
so simply look at the 
you know that (ax)(4x)=4a* = 24,
4a = 24 => a = 6
Done.
The '40 years' is not part of the question. It's just there to prove that
'2% each year' has been the experience for the past 40 years, so it's
a good number to use for the rate of growth, past or future.
So, at any number of years 'Q' after the beginning of "this period",
the population was or will be
Pop = (220,000) (1.02)^Q power.
(This equation is familiar from all of the bank-interest problems
the student has done in past math classes.)
In 10 years after the beginning of "this period",
Pop = (220,000) (1.02)¹⁰ = <em>243,800 </em>(or any reasonably close number)
